Military Summit - Wednesday, September 13
Join a member of MBA Admissions, and learn about Stern's Fertitta Veterans Program, a one-of-a-kind program designed to support US military veterans and active-duty students as they transition to business school. The Fertitta Program is an intensive summer program that gives students an opportunity to get an early start on classes, explore different career paths, work on professional development, and engage with the military community at Stern. At the end of the term, Fertitta students join their Full-time MBA classmates for mandatory LAUNCH Orientation to begin the fall semester. Some students who participate in the program will receive the Fertitta Scholarship.
The Fertitta Program is for students in the Two-year Full-time MBA program.

Virtual Mock Class with Professor Richard Hendler: Enforceable Contract or Not
6:00 - 7:00 PM EDT
Go inside the Stern classroom with Professor Richard Hendler as he teaches a mock class on business law. The class will acquaint you with the legal systems, their benefits and pitfalls, the cost of litigation, and the potential consequences of dishonest business activity. We’ll explore an aspect or two of contract formation and potential arenas of attack and discuss the myriad of contract remedies available as well as risk reduction by careful contract drafting. A good deal of legal strategy is a matter of hedging against risk. Let’s see what kinds of protections are available and what kinds of risks exist based on contract law.
